Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x on one side of the equation.

<u><em>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:</em></u>

A(B+C)=AB+AC

A(B-C)=AB-AC

2(3x – 4) + 10 = 5(x + 4)

2(3x-4)+10 (First, expand by using distributive property.)

2*3x=6x

2*4=8

6x-8

6x-8+10

-8+10 (Add and subtract.)

-8+10=2

6x+2

5(x+4)

5*x=5x

5*4=20

5x+20

6x+2=5x+20

6x+2-2=5x+20-2 (Subtract 2 from both sides.)

20-2 (Solve.)

20-2=18

6x=5x+18

6x-5x=5x+18-5x (Then, subtract 5x from both sides.)

18-5x (Solve.)

18-5x=18

x=18

So, the correct answer is x=18.

By selling a stool for rupees 67.50,a carpenter loses 10%.how much percent would he gain or lose by selling it for rupees 82.50.

valentina_108 [34]

Let the actual value of the stool be x.

So if the carpenter sells the stool x rupees he neither loses, now wins anything.

67.50 is the value x - 10% of x, that is:

67.50=x-0.1x
67.50=0.9x

x=67.50/0.9=75 (rupees) is the actual value of the stool.

Selling the stool for 82.50 rupees, the carpenter clearly would make a profit, say of y% of that actual value, that is y%*75.

So using the same method:

82.50=75+y%*75

y%*75=82.50-75=7.5

we can make the calculations, but clearly 7.5 is 10% of 75

Answer: 10% gain.

Evolutionary theories often emphasize that humans have adapted to their physical environment. One such theory hypothesizes that

timama [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that evolution theory hypothesizes that people should spontaneously follow a 24-hour cycle of sleeping and wakingdash–even if they are not exposed to the usual pattern of sunlight.

Sample size n = 8

df = 8- 1=7

Since population std deviation is not known, and sample size is small we can use only t test

$H-0: x bar = 24\\H_a: x bar \neq 24$

(two tailed test at 5% level of significance)

mean 25

sd 3.142857143

se 1.111167799

Test statistic = Mean diff/se = 1.595

p = 0.1546

since p >0.05, accept null hypothesis.

There is no evidence to prove that the steady cycle is different from 24 hours.
